Human brain, eyes, ears found in closed shop in Nashik

In a mysterious situation, Human body parts have been found in a closed shop in the basement of a building in Mumbai Naka area of Maharashtra’s Nashik city, police said on Monday. 

A foul smell was coming from the shop for the past couple of days after which residents in the vicinity alerted police late Sunday night, an official said.

“The shop was full of scrap material. However, when two plastic containers were opened, we found human ears, brain, eyes and some facial parts. The forensic team has taken custody of the human remains for further probe," he said.

“The two sons of the shop’s owner are doctors. So it is possible these parts were preserved for medical purposes. However, a probe is underway covering all angles. No case has been registered so far," the Mumbai Naka police station official added.
